Tony Romo says he doesn’t pay attention to coaching rumors like the one that surfaced over the weekend about Mike Holmgren being interested in coaching the Cowboys.

Romo says that’s because they carry no weight.

“There’s a lot of noise that goes on outside the locker room and, honestly, as players and coaches in here, we really don’t listen to it because it just doesn’t matter,” Romo said Wednesday during a conference call with reporters in Cleveland. “All we know how to do is go to work and get ready to play our best game against Cleveland this week.

...surprise me to hear that all the players in the league hear the media and fan comments.

How can you not? It's the most popular sport in the continent during this time.

With Romo having a spouse who was once in the media would tell me he is media savy enough to have access to all manner of topics Cowboys related.

More important is not to let the discussion affect how you approach your job and support your team in focusing on what is important - winning games as opposed to bandying around every rumour in the mill.
